- Shake That Thing LyricsNow down in Georgia : they got a dance that's new
There ain't nothing to it : it is easy to do
Now it ain't no Charleston : ain't no buck and wing
All you got to do : is to shake that thing
Now the old folks like it : the young folks too
The old folks showing : the young folks how to do
Now get back to me : and
Let your mammy you : just *all to do*
I was walking downtown : and stumbled and fell
My mouth jumped open : like a country well
Now grandpa Johnson : grabbed sister Kate
He shook her : just like you shake the *jelly from the
wheat*
Now old Uncle Jack : the jellyroll king
He just got back : from shaking that thing
Now old Uncle Moe : he's sick in bed
The doctor says : he's almost dead
Now the folks in Georgia : they done got wild
The *hobo* :
There ain't nothing to it : it is easy to do
Now it ain't no Charleston : ain't no buck and wing
All you got to do : is to shake that thing
Now the old folks like it : the young folks too
The old folks showing : the young folks how to do
Now get back to me : and
Let your mammy you : just *all to do*
I was walking downtown : and stumbled and fell
Now grandpa Johnson : grabbed sister Kate
He shook her : just like you shake the *jelly from the
wheat*
Now old Uncle Jack : the jellyroll king
He just got back : from shaking that thing
Now old Uncle Moe : he's sick in bed
The doctor says : he's almost dead
Now the folks in Georgia : they done got wild
The *hobo* :
